If you are going to provide l10n of these messages, you'll need to do it in userland somehow. However, if you return strings that task becomes a bit harder. I still prefer returning error data, not presentation, and letting something else (userland) take care of formatting error data and presenting it to the user. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org
